Spinach, cream and Ikea !

Tonight, I’m going to Ikea with my youngest sister.We’re going to spend my sister’s money for her new tiny apartment.We’re going to have fun.We’re going to eat over there.I’m going to eat Ikea’s meat balls, with sauce and French fries. Maybe a glass of rosé and surely a piece of this terrible daim cake, that my stomach loves so much, while my hips hate it …And as I’m a good wife and a good mother, before leaving my children and my husband, I will cook for them.

They’ll have the glorious privilege to eat … spinach !

… What ?...

I am going to make sport ! I need some sugar in my blood !

Who can say that to spend three hours in Ikea is not a sport ??...

First : you can’t go right on what you’re looking for ! You have to make all the tour of the store ! You walk for hours !Endurance…

Second : If you forget something, and you have to coming back to one specific space, you have to fight against the human stream who comes over you !...Kayak against stream and sometimes street fighting !

Third : When it’s 22h00 and everybody have to get out, you have to run to find the emptiest cash register !Sprint !

Have fun at IKEA :) I love creamed spinach, I remember my parents made some for us when we were kids, yum :) It's a very French thing, though. I don't think I've ever heard a kid say "yum, spinach" in the US or Canada ;)
